Local law enforcement agencies are searching for a driver, suspected of hitting a Nevada Highway Patrol cruiser, then leaving the scene in a different vehicle.
Trooper Dave Gibson says it happened near the Sands Casino on N. Arlington St. before 10:30 p.m. Saturday night.
Troopers say one of their vehicles was struck during a DUI patrol, and the driver left the vehicle before taking off in another one.
It remains unclear if that incident was a car-jacking.
The suspect remains on the loose and no description is currently available.
Channel 2 News will be sure to provide an update as the story develops.
